The
Hitchhiker who Delivers a Message From God...Then Disappears-Fiction!
Summary of eRumor:
There are several versions
of this story. One is told by a motorist who picks up a man or a
woman along a lonely road. The motorist is fascinated by this ethereal
person. At some point, the hitchhiker says something like
"Jesus is Coming soon" then disappears. Another
version has the motorist dropping the hitchhiker off at a home. He
is so haunted by the memory of the rider that the next day, he goes to
the house where he dropped the hitchhiker and finds out that he or she
was a person who had died several years earlier.
The Truth:
This
is a classic urban legend. It has been told throughout the world
for decades. For more details, see Rich Buhler's URBAN MYTHS page at Ship-Of-Fools.com.
